A look at Sadio Mane's celebratory stint at Liverpool

It is pertinent to mention that Mane moves to Bayern on the back of arguably the best season of his career. He won the African Cup of Nations with the Senegal national team and also helped them qualify for the FIFA World Cup 2022, Qatar. At the same time, he had a stellar season for his former club Liverpool, as they missed out on an unprecedented quadruple of major trophies.

The 30-year-old won every major honour during his time with Liverpool, starting with the UEFA Champions League and Club World Cup in 2019, the Premier League title in 2020 and both the FA Cup and League Cup in 2022. During the 2021-22 season, Mane scored a total of 23 goals for the team, playing a total of 51 games across competitions. 

Liverpool missed out on the chance of picking the Premier League trophy this year, as Manchester City finished above them in the points table. On the other hand, Real Madrid picked up their historic 14th Champions League title by picking up a 1-0 win over Liverpool. However, they have already signed Uruguay striker Darwin Núñe as Mane’s replacement. 

Will Robert Lewandowski and Sadio Mane play together for Bayern?

However, Mane’s arrival at Bayern has fueled speculations about the Polish great Robert Lewandowski leaving the club. Lewandowski has scored a total of 312 goals in 384 games for Bayern Munich and ex-club Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga, and is being linked with a transfer to Barcelona. The polish became Bundesliga’s leading goal scorer for the fifth straight time by striking a total of 35 goals in 34 games during the 2021-22 season.
